Listen to the latest 60 second episode of Integrity Moments with Rick Boxx
Integrity Moments is a 60 second workday devotional that provides business leaders with helpful insight into what the Bible says about our work and how we can fully integrate our faith into our vocational calling.

In his book “Second Wind for the Second Half,” Patrick Morley describes questioning the team he hired to paint basketball markings on the driveway around his garage basketball hoop. When the team seemed to take a long time to get started, Morley asked if there was a problem. The team foreman said they were checking and rechecking measurements before they started work.  

“We’ve learned from experience that unless you have the right starting point, everything else will turn out wrong,” the foreman said. 

What is the starting point for your work?  

Isaiah wrote of God, “He will be the sure foundation for your times, a rich store of salvation and wisdom and knowledge;” (Isaiah 33:6) 

Your work will only have eternal value when you build it with and on God.
